Easy transitions for I/DD medication services

Switching pharmacy providers can seem daunting. That’s why we’ve developed a stress-free solution to ease the process. Through simplified protocols, timed coordination and team collaboration, our guided step-by-step process promises a seamless transition.

As part of the transition, your HealthDirect pharmacy team will guide you through:

Planning, Data Transition, Team Training, Go Live, Ongoing Support

Planning

During our initial meeting, we work together to gather supportive living facility information, including survey dates, delivery and contact information, med pass times and standing order lists. 

 

Data Transition

We’ll work together to identify key dates and gather resident fact sheets, insurance information and physician orders. Your order entry technician will help you develop a “road map” for all future data submissions. 

Team Training

A dedicated pharmacy team works with you to develop customized training solutions. Prior to start date, HealthDirect in-services your staff on pharmacy policies and procedures. 

 

Go-Live

Your HealthDirect team is onsite the day of start-up. This ensures all systems and protocols are running smoothly and any questions are quickly answered. 

On-Going Support

After launch, we continue to support your supportive living facility via a transition recap meeting, continued HealthDirect management support, and ongoing visits from your account manager.

Easy Billing

We understand the importance of simple, accurate billing. Our clean billing system provides reports that are clear, concise and easy to understand. Access to online billing is always available through Customer Access Plus. 
Your dedicated billing specialist works with you to:

  • Ensure patient coverage.

  • Make sure private pay residents received their bill directly, instead of through billing facility.

  • Work directly with a HealthDirect billing representative. We do not outsource billing.
